Sorting Algorithms and All That Jazz (Part I)

Thanks to Brian Morgans for bringing us not only a Bubble Sorting lesson but a brief JavaScript lesson! To pursue his exercises please download a capable text editor like TextMate or Notepad++. Alternatively, you can simply use Xed or Visual Studio. An excellent first step in understanding sorting might be to run 'info sort' or 'man sort' from your X11 prompt.
